David Darbyshire Poems

I ran around the world
yesterday evening and
that morning I
swam the Atlantic
...

Sounds very Simple to do,
To Kiss me Quick
But your Love must be True
And to catch me, is the Trick
...

All white, ten decks,
everyone in checks.
Twenty-four life boats,
it is a wonder it still floats.
...

The storm grew
It's nearly due
nail yourself in
time runnin thin
...

I thought she was here to stay?
but my baby seems to have gone away.
Now, I suppose I won't get my 'Hug',
maybe tomorrow, won't be so grey?
...

I suppose we start with Lipstick
Red, Cherrie, spread on nice and Thick
Then a hair piece, or a Wig
The best that they can Rig
...

Time has no conclusion
it will never terminate
Time waits for nobody
seems we are always late
...

I do not want to say anything funny
because I know every lady is 'Perfect',
there is only one little problem,
I just have not found one yet.
...

In Zud Africa
Along the Zulu Natal Coast
The Cain grows four meters High
Seams to touch the Sky
...

One ear up, with a funny grin
Eye's wide, hair on his chin
white spot on the forehead
bridal hanging in the shed
...
